But the river&#8217;s origin is still unknown, and this secret is one of the main things that captivates visitors. The drive from the city takes about an hour and is sure to be one of the highlights of your trip to Valencia. We recommend buying your ticket online to avoid the queues.&nbsp;Definitely one of the places you can&#8217;t miss around Valencia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>How to get to the Cuevas de San Jos\u00e9?<\/strong> To get to the caves from Valencia, you have to take the V-21 and then the AP-7.

It has great historical importance, going back thousands of years. Founded by the ancient Greeks, it was sacked by Hannibal and later joined the Roman Empire, and expanded under Muslim rule. However, it was the Romans who left a great legacy in the city of <strong>Sagunto<\/strong>. You can visit the Roman theatre, the remains of the temple of Diana, and a little further down the hill in the old town of Sagunto you can stroll through the winding streets of the Jewish quarter, which remain as they were in the 15th century.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>How to get to Sagunto Castle?<\/strong> To get to Sagunto Castle from Valencia, you will have to take the car and exit on the V-21, then take the V-23 towards Sagunto and finally turn off on the N-340.

It&#8217;s an ideal destination for hiking and cliff jumping (if you are brave enough!).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>What to bring to the Fuente de los Ba\u00f1os?<\/strong> We recommend bringing jelly shoes to move around the lake more comfortably, as well as a comfortable swimming costume, a towel and a small bottle of water.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>What hikes are there to do in the Fuente de los Ba\u00f1os?<\/strong> One of the best-known routes to do at the Fuente de los Ba\u00f1os de Montanejos is the Ruta de Los Estrechos, a simple excursion suitable for all ages.

The pinkish colour is due to bacteria present in the water. This series of rivers in the Sierra de San Miguel de Salinas give life to the lagoons, which are home to a great variety of bird species. The famous flamingo, of course, stands out the most. <strong>A perfect destination for birdwatchers or nature photographers.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What are you waiting for?

Then, continue along the EL-20 and CV-853 for quite a while until you reach your destination. You can also get there by bus, which takes about 4 hours and 46 minutes. You have to get off in Alicante and then take a Costa Azul bus to Torrevieja and get off in La Mata.

Its decorative features are based on medieval and baroque styles and on nature itself.

Mart\u00ed Maties estimates that its route reached as far as the city of Valencia, with a total distance of 98.6 km!

Bocairent, one of the impressive villages around Valencia<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This small town in the interior of Valencia has a special charm, thanks to its exquisite historic centre and the mysterious Covetes dels Moros. It is a very well preserved medieval village, and was declared a Historic and Artistic Site by the Spanish government in recognition of its historical importance. We recommend wandering through its narrow streets and enjoying its culture. Above is the<strong> parish church of Nuestra Se\u00f1ora de la Asunci\u00f3n <\/strong>and the remains of a 16th century castle. The curved structures of the streets are of Arab origin and are a thousand years old. The Covetes dels Moros are a group of artificial caves in the cliff and there has been much speculation as to why they were built, but it is most likely that they were granary-warehouses between the 10th and 11th centuries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to know more about this destination visit our post: Things to see and do in Bocairent and download the travel itinerary we recommend.

The mixture of cultures has left its mark on this town, such as the Arab quarter of Benacacira, the Jewish quarter of Azoque, the Mudejar quarter Arrabal, and also the medieval Christian quarter.

Here are some of the best:<br\/><br\/>&#8211; First of all, you can&#8217;t miss the <strong>Hanging Bridges Route<\/strong>. You can choose between a short 3-kilometre route, or extend it to 12 kilometres. You&#8217;ll pass through different natural landscapes, from the river canyon to the Calderones area, passing over different suspension bridges.<br\/><br\/>&#8211; Another of the most emblematic places to do a route is the <strong>Mirador de El Garb\u00ed<\/strong>, located in the heart of the Sierra Calderona. It is an ideal excursion for the whole family, as it does not take long and, on arrival at the viewpoint, you can enjoy a large picnic area.<br\/><br\/>&#8211; Finally, we recommend the Chelva Water Route, where you can marvel at a route that combines some of the most beautiful natural features. From incredible rock formations to lakes and waterfalls, the 8 kilometre route will leave you wanting more!<\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"tips-for-a-trip-around-valencia\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tips-for-a-trip-around-Valencia\"><\/span>Tips for a trip around Valencia<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>If you are going on an excursion, don&#8217;t forget to bring sunscreen and a cap.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you visit a cove, we recommend wearing jelly shoes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>When visiting a village, bear in mind that parking is not always easy.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Always respect natural sites when you are in them.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Plan your route well before heading to a new destination.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-organise-a-travel-itinerary-to-visit-the-area-around-valencia\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How-to-organise-a-travel-itinerary-to-visit-the-area-around-Valencia\"><\/span>How to organise a travel itinerary to visit the area around Valencia?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don&#8217;t know how to organise your trip around Valencia, sign up to Passporter and we&#8217;ll help you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Get inspiration from the experiences of other travellers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Create your own itinerary and add the app\u2019s suggestions to it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Add the spots you are most interested in, as well as the restaurants and bars where you want to eat (you can use the points of interest listed in this post as a reference).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Organise your itinerary by days and according to their location (you can take inspiration from the routes presented in the post).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Check the travel budget that the app calculates for you based on your travel stops, restaurants, and leisure activities.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Make the necessary modifications and you are ready for your trip.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Finally, share your experience.
